To eat folic acid or start taking vitamin?

Hi Mommas, my EDD is on 18th April 2023. Currently I'm on my week 11 day 5 based on this app. I didn't know I'm pregnant until week 8 , quite late because of irregular menses since young. I saw the doctor on Sep 8. So doc gave me 1 month of Folic Acid pills. And my appointment with KKH was on 13 Sep (Week 9 by then but not sure day what). I'm currently left with 6 pills left. When I finish the 6 pills, it will be week 12 Day 4 based on the app, which means week 12 day 5-7, I have no folic acid. Do I buy 3 more folic acid pills to complete or do I start taking vitamins for trimester 2?

finish your folic acid first, they should give you vitamins on your next checkup. but meanwhile, if you want to get a pack of your own folic acid from the retail pharmacies also no issues. my kkh pharmacist actually told me to finish up my folic acid first before starting on the prescribed vitamins even though i was 12 weeks in.
